Custom Metal Fabrication & Ironwork In Washington, DC

Window Bar & Security Door

Window bars and steel security doors built to fit your openings that stop break-ins at ground-floor windows and entries, so you can sleep easier at night.

Keep Intruders Out Without Feeling Locked In

Ground-floor windows, basement openings and a front door with a flimsy storm screen are the first places a burglar looks for an easy way in. Many property owners only start thinking about security after a break-in nearby or a scare at their own home. A standard door and a single window latch can be forced in seconds, especially at entries hidden from the street. Window bars and steel security doors put a solid barrier in front of those weak points, so getting inside takes far more time and noise than most intruders want to risk.

Security ironwork only works when it is fitted properly, since bars with gaps that are too wide or fasteners that can be removed from outside give a false sense of protection. Fire safety matters too, because bars across a bedroom window can trap people inside if there is no way to open them from within. At DC Iron & Metal Works, each opening is measured and the mounting is planned so the bars and door resist prying while still respecting the need for a way out. A security door also has to hang square and latch smoothly, or it ends up propped open because it is a hassle to use.

Custom fabrication is what separates these pieces from the off-the-shelf grilles sold at hardware stores, which rarely match the size of older window openings or the style of the house. We build window bars and security doors to the exact dimensions of your openings, so they sit tight against the frame instead of leaving gaps at the edges. The design can stay simple and discreet or pick up scrollwork and patterns that suit the front of the home. You get protection that looks like it belongs on the property rather than something added as an afterthought.
